    It’s in the name, conservatism is the opposite of progressivism, progress is a natural state, nothing stays as is forever, the only way to stop progress is to go against nature.

      “Change” is the natural state, and not all changes are “progress”.
      Conservative used to be “want to take things slow to see which changes are good and which are bad”.
      Stagnatives and Retrogrades should be separate categories.
